Hit and Run

Well guys...Thursday night...my truck was hit. a guy turned in front of me...then we stopped..he offered to pay me cash..i called the cops. i was talking to my sister and i had my back turned to the guy. he left his car there...but left with some lady that i think he didnt even know. this ˟˟˟˟ sucks. it tore up my front passenger side bumper, brush guard and fender. its on the same side that just got hit like 5 months ago. it also cut my tire down. so now..if i want it fixed...it all has to come out of my pocket. on a better note..i got a BS Dueller AT tire...and i like it...its pretty nice.

any one have a valance, turn signal light, or bumper that they wanna donate to a good cause??

i wish i still lived with my mommy....

Man that sucks. What did the cops do? I'd think that unless the car was stolen, they should have a pretty easy time tracking the guy down. Sorry I can't help ya on parts!

the cops didnt say much. they know the owner of the car...and said i could take them to claims court. but they said since i didnt get the plate number of the car he left in..there wasnt much they could do...

I don't get it, they say the know the owner of the car? Why can't they just go to his house and arrest him for hit and run? Man that's frustrating.

Yeah, I think thats a load of crap. You need to contact a lawyer or at least your insurance company, and press charges. Don't let this go away, since the next time this guy pulls something like that, it could be your friend, sister, etc. that dies in the crash.
